“Lucinda, there’s no sign of her. She practically bolted and vanished into thin air right after leaving the house. I checked the surveillance footage, but she managed not to be captured by the surveillance cameras.”
The atmosphere at the house turned tense.
And Lucinda took a moment to ponder the situation.
She was uncertain whether Hallie’s actions were deliberate or not.
“Where did you find her? Send me all the details you have on her.
Investigate her thoroughly and bring her to me. I need to have a face-to-face chat with her,” Lucinda demanded.
“Alright, I’ll get right on it,” Sonny replied.
As evening descended, the two babies peacefully slept. They nestled in the center of the bed, creating a divide between Lucinda and Nathan.
Nathan patted the babies while stealing glances at Lucinda on the opposite side of the bed. He noticed she seemed lost in her thoughts as her eyes fixated on Destinee.
“Lucinda?” he called softly.

Feeling a tad hurt, Nathan couldn’t help but feel a pang of jealousy.
The babies not only shared their cozy bed but also seemed to occupy most of Lucinda’s time and thoughts.

Nathan furrowed his brow and responded in a hushed tone, “I was about to ask you the same thing…”
“Nate, the more I ponder about the nanny from earlier today, the more uneasy I become.” Lucinda had a stern look on her face.
